Students are referred to section F.3.2 on Unsatisfactory Standing in the Academic Regulations section of this Calendar.

The academic standing of students registered in the Faculty will be reviewed after each Winter Term provided that they have taken at least 18 units at the University of Calgary since their previous review. Students who have not taken 18 units since the previous review and are either in good standing or on regular academic probation will retain their existing status until their next review.

All University of Calgary credit courses that have been taken since the previous review are used to calculate the GPA for the purpose of academic review. Students placed on academic probation or required to withdraw as a result of the academic review will be so advised in writing.

Notwithstanding the specific regulations pertaining to Student Standing, students' academic standing may be reviewed at any time and those with generally poor academic records may be placed or continued on academic probation or required to withdraw at the discretion of the Associate Dean, Undergraduate Programs and Student Affairs, or other delegate of the Dean.

(a) A student will be considered in good standing if they achieve a GPA of at least 2.00 over all courses taken since their previous review.

(b) A student will be placed on academic probation if they achieve a GPA of at least 1.70 but less than 2.00 over all courses taken since their previous review and have not been on academic probation within the preceding five years.

(c) A student will be required to withdraw from the faculty if they achieve a GPA less than 2.00 over all courses taken since their previous review and have a probationary period within the last five years.

(d) A student will be required to withdraw from the faculty if they achieve a GPA of less than 1.70 over all courses taken since their previous review.

(e) A student who meets the criteria for (c) or (d) will be invited to participate in the Academic Turnaround Program (ATP) if they have not previously done so. ATP allows students to continue in their program on academic probation with special conditions and enhanced academic support.

For full details about the Academic Turnaround Program students are referred to B.20 in the Academic Regulations section of this Calendar.
